The nomadic city is the path itself, the most stable sign in the void, and the form of this city is the sinuous line drawn by the succession of points in motion.

The nomadic city is not the trail of a past left as a tracing on the ground, it is the present that occupies, again and again, those segments of territory on wich the journey take place, that part of the landscape walked, perceived and experienced in the "hic et nunc" of the transhumance.
